For the most part, I enjoyed the workshop day a lot! I enjoyed the performance aspect. Even though I was nervous before, I found that I could actually do it better than I thought I would be able to, and it was fun. It was also a lot easier to be confident after I had been all made up and was wearing my costume, which was this:
It was also my first experience of being properly in front of a camera, so that was exciting.
Mostly I enjoyed the workshop day because of how professional the studio looked with all the equipment:
I had never seen a studio like that before, and it gave me an idea of what a real production might look like.
I was excited by all the equipment, especially the monitors that connected to the camera so you could see what was being filmed:

It was also fun to watch some parts of the music video being filmed, in particular the poolside scenes because the set looked amazing.

I had the opportunity to go up to the lighting desk and learn about how the lighting is controlled. It wasn't as interesting as I thought it would be. I was confused when he was explaining it, because he was just pointing to random buttons and saying what each random button did but I couldn't really understand it or remember anything he said. I did enjoy sitting up at the lighting desk, though, and looking at the set from above.

Although there was lots to look at on the set, I didn't feel like it was enough to fill the entire day. I finished my shots at 10:30 am, and I had more than eight hours left. It was also very hot in the studio and eventually I wished the day could be over. Despite this, I still really enjoyed the workshop day overall.
